Shower tray repair in Whitchurch without replacing anything
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about cracks running from the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whitchurch as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Common problems we fix in Whitchurch
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A tray that flexes
- A damaged area around the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips caused during fitting
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- Who will actually do the work
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Check the seal every few months
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
